Your Community Benefits

One of the Seven Cooperative Principles that drives Columbia REA is the Concern for Community. Columbia REA takes this commitment very seriously. After all, we live, work and play in the communities that we serve.

Columbia REA is involved in many community service programs, projects and organizations. You should be proud as a member-owner that your Cooperative is dedicated to giving not only money but time to these very important community based programs.

One of the main areas of focus for Columbia REA is youth-based programs. Columbia REA believes that supporting youth educational programs will help teach kids to be productive and successful adults.

Grassroots Program

The goal of Columbia REA’s Grass Roots program is to facilitate communication with our members regarding important industry news. We especially want to make our members aware of legislative issues that are important to the cooperative and its members so that they may communicate with their elected officials if necessary.

Supporting Our Youth

We know that our future is in the hands of the young people in our communities and we want to do everything possible to make it a bright future.
